Formaldehyde Process Used For New Plants

 

FeMoCat provides complete technical Know-How and design / engineering for FA37/FA55 plants in the capacity range (67 MTPD-400 MTPD) or equivalent Urea Formaldehyde Concentrate (UFC85) based on Excess Air (Iron Oxide Catalyst) process. Formaldehydes are produced by Catalytic Oxidation of Methanol. A basic process flow diagram is shown below:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS FOR FORMALDEHYDE (FA – 37/FA55 ) 
The designed/engineer plants have the capability to produce Formaldehyde (FA -37 / 55) product specified below: 

 

Composition, wt%

 

Formaldehyde (HCHO)

37.00 – 55.00

Methanol (CH3OH)

<1.0

Formic Acid (HCOOH)       

<0.05

Water (H2O)         

Balance

 

Various stabilized grades of Aq. Formaldehyde (i.e. 37% concentration Formaldehyde with varying stabilizing Methanol content of 0.40 % to 12 % and 55% concentration Formaldehyde) can be produced in the PLANT.


FeMoCat has a General Coorperation Agreement with established companies for the Formaldehyde Process and downstreams.
